Oakland Walk was Fantastic!

The Walk to Cure Diabetes held at the Oakland Zoo is now a terrific memory!  The event raised more than $333,000, as of walk day, to support the JDRF's efforts to fund research into the causes, treatments and cures for T1D.  Shelby & Co. raised almost $1,000 this year, which we could not have done without all of your fantastic support!

We've posted photos from the Silicon Valley and Oakland walks!  Though we missed some team members who couldn't make it this year, we were delighted to be joined by Liz's cousin Dawn and her family for the first time!

Still to come are walks in San Francisco on Oct. 28 and Irvine on Nov. 4, which will be led by Scott's sister Marianne.  Shelby & Co. is branching out all over California!  If you'd like to know how to start a chapter near you, let us know!

Thank you all for your continuing support over these 11 years Shelby & Co. has been battling T1D!  It's because of each of you that we keep moving forward each and every year!
